Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle remains in a roadworthy condition, having passed its most recent MOT on 16 June 2026 at 47,512 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable and improving following a specific mechanical failure in 2023. The last two annual tests resulted in clean sheets, suggesting that the current ownership is proactively addressing identified issues and maintaining the vehicle to standard. The mileage profile is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,900 miles per year. There is a significant jump in usage observed between July 2023 and July 2024, where the car covered 11,480 miles in a single year. However, the usage has slowed again since, with only 1,801 miles recorded between the most recent tests over the last two years. This low annual mileage generally implies less strain on the drivetrain, though it can sometimes lead to flat spots on tyres if the vehicle sits for extended periods. A buyer should specifically inspect the front braking system, as the July 2023 failure at 27,619 miles highlighted pitted discs and thin pads. While these were replaced, the June 2025 advisory regarding a nearside rear tyre worn on the edge suggests a potential alignment issue or a worn suspension bush. A physical check for uneven tyre wear across all four wheels and an inspection of the suspension components are necessary to ensure that the geometry remains correct and to prevent premature replacement of new tyres.
